Throughly enjoyed our boat trip to Seal Island this morning with Dolly P. Our guide was really knowledgable and interesting and they have the best interests of the animals at heart, unlike some other tour companies in the bay. We got nice and close to the seals in a safe and quiet way. Cracking coastalViews on the way there and back too 👍🏻
